Dan Ackerman sues Apple and game company, saying they blocked his approaches to adapt book into movie, then did it anyway
Dan Ackerman, editor in chief of the tech news website Gizmodo, has filed a lawsuit in Manhattan federal court accusing Apple, the Tetris Company and others of adapting his book about the video game Tetris into a feature film without his permission.
Ackerman claims he sent his book The Tetris Effect in 2016 to the Tetris Company, which allegedly copied it for the movie and threatened to sue him if he pursued his own film or television spin-offs.
